The example in the photo was from a sample, so the remaining pieces will be even better, but we are excited by how good it looks. However, had I known in advance how many hours and how much work would be involved, I would have quoted a much higher amount for this particular commission! I have enjoyed it immensely though.Jane Flanaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14286235189756577084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2562485639939576351.post-4831264605697293882017-07-28T23:12:50.065+01:002017-07-28T23:12:50.065+01:00I have done similar work for the restoration of vi...I have done similar work for the restoration of vintage juke boxes (You know, the kind of thing you would see in a tavern or a pub where you insert coins and select the music you want to hear). Finding materials to match the original is always a challenge, but seeing the finished cloth on the juke box makes it all worth while.<br /><br />Good luck with your 20 meters. The first meter is kind of exciting, but by the time your get to ten and know you have as much to go as you just made, it is time to listen to a book on CD, preferably something engrossing, to carry on.<br />Sharon (Salt Lake City)Sharon Aldermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17302815434231046204noreply@blogger.com
